Tyres for 650

[ovenpaa]

A friend has just asked me where the cheapest place to get F650 Tyres are, and what people use in the UK - I of course have no idea, but perhaps one of you nice 650 types could point me in the right direction?

He needs road biased tyres, I guess something like the 650 equivelant of the Tourance and they will need to be shipped to DK but I can sort that out.

Cheers

personally i use www.mynetmoto.co.uk
had good service from them and good prices too , they ship from germany so going straight to denmark should be no problem

The tourance comes in the sizes required:

90/90-21" or 19" for the front and I think 130/80-17" on the rear.

I found for a road bike tourances are the best as they last up to 10k miles when properly inflated at all times.

Tyres

I have run both my F650GSs on Avon Distanzias.

Excellent road tyres and over 12,000 miles a set.

Mine came with Continental Escapes. So far Im impressed with them. Very good in the wet, dont know how long they will last and not yet been off tarmac. No too expensive either

my dakar came with sahara 3 tyres, the rear was only good for 3000 miles and i'll be lucky to get 6000 out of the front

Do they do tourances in dakar sizes?
